    Heartstrings Preview
    Since Brownie readers have been so curious about Elf King Gerald, and because I started off Hugo's story planning on writing the sequel, I went ahead and wrote down the very beginning of Gerald's story, 'Heartstrings". If you want to give it a read and leave some feedback, feel free. The rest of the story will be written after I finish Milk and Brownies (although I have both stories planned out already).

    Warning: This little tidbit does contain some Brownie spoilers. Read at your own risk.

    Note to self: Pirate fights were-shark. Witty one-liners and the killing of were shark. Rumors of treasure from a seedy leprechaun pimp (lucky charm bling, and the line, "Would ye be interested in a bonny lass? She can do the horizontal river dance like you wouldn't believe *leer*" or something of that effect).  Onward sailing, *woah* ZOMBIE-were-shark! Controlled by mer-necromancer!!!! WTF???

    This story must get written whenever I get some free time.

    In more coherent and entirely more relevant news, I'm procrastinating on M&B. Midterms are technically over on Friday, though, so I'm not officially late yet.

    Current Mood: weird

    Otakon 2008
    Otakon was pretty awesome. I took a lot of pictures, bought a lot of stuff, saw a ton of amvs, and had a blast. I didn't get to any of the panels because they were too crowded, and I missed a few things because I had to wait on other people in the group or because they didn't want to go to certain things. However, overall, it was fun.

    Some highlights:
    cosplay- I did two costumes (three, if you count how Nekozawa can become Kyouya with the addition of glasses and the loss of a puppet and a cloak)- Miss Cloud and Nekozawa. Even if not a lot of people recognized Miss Cloud, the people that did and glomped me, and the Zack who I hit on a little, made it worth it. Let's see if I can make pictures work..
    .

    My friends cosplayed too, which was fun. We had a turk, Kakashi, Iruka, a bleach character, and Quail-man (who got asked to take more pictures and who generally got more recognition than the rest of us, even though his costume took only a fraction of the time to make. He was eating up all the attention, but the rest of us are kind of shy, so it's probably a good thing). I took some great pictures of cosplayers, too, because there were a ton of great costumes. There was one guy who may or may not have been Castlevania Alucard. I didn't ask in case he wasn't, but I choose to believe he was. Alucard is so yummy.

    Also, while I was cosplaying Ms Cloud, an Aeris interviewed me for finalfantasyxiii.net, which was kind of strange. I didn't know there was going to be a video camera involved... Apparently there is going to be a podcast, which maybe I'll be in. I'm kind of afraid to look and see, because I'm afraid I'll be awful in it. I didn't know what they were going to ask or where to look or anything. Cameras freak me out. Anyways, the website it FinalFantasyXIII.net, if anyone wants to check it out and stay posted on the status of the next installment of the FF series.

    Since I was in FF costume, I also took the opportunity to phoenix down a lot of fallen characters. Some people apparently didn't get that phoenix downs are feathers from a phoenix, but after I handed it to them and shouted, "Phoenix down!" most understood. I raised an L chained to a Light on Thursday evening at pre-reg. She was a little freaked out when I walked up to her and put something on her head, but once I told her what it was, she was happy. From what my friends tell me (I was too busy running away), she said, "Awesome!" and turned around to her Light and yelled, "Ha! Take that, you bastard!" I found the same pair later and gave them a 'Death Cat'- a Death Note version of the Beelzenef puppet from my nekozawa costume (I forgot to take a picture of it). Once again, they were confused, but happy when they realized what it was. (I was glad I found them again, because none of the other L and Lights were chained together, and I wanted to give Death Cat to a pair of them that was).

    Other characters phoenixed downed:
    -Maes Hughes from FMA
    -Deidara
    -Aerith/Aeris (two of them, the second one because she squealed and took my picture, so I wanted her to live)
    -A Mello who also took one for her child Matt
    I think I raised one of the other people twice, but I don't remember who. Then there was the cursed phoenix down, which the characters rejected. I used it on an Auron from FFX (I didn't think he'd like it , but my friends wanted me to try). He didn't seem very excited, and since he decided he could do more as a dead person, he gave it back to me. Zabuza from Naruto similarly enjoyed his deadness, and Axel from Kingdom Hearts 2 told me he was the phoenix, so he didn't really need one. After that, I stopped trying to give it to people. I eventually lost it in the dealers room, probably when I was searching for wall scrolls and didn't have an extra hand to hold it.

    The Loot:
    The list of things I bought-
    -A Castlevania Alucard sticker, to adorn my external hard drive, which is named Alucard after him.
    -A Matt (deathnote) bookmark. He's so cute, and a video game junkie at that!
    -A xxxHolic wallscroll for my dorm room. I couldn't find one with Doumeki and Watanuki, so I settled for Catboy Watanuki, Yuuko, and Himawari-chan.
    -4 volumes of the manga 'Godchild' and one volume of the prequel, 'Cain Saga'
    -the box set version of Nerima Daikon Brothers
    -A foam stand-up Tobi (from Naruto). His name tag says he's a good boy
    -and a black plushie Mokona (xxxHolic) for my little sister.

    All in all, I came back poorer, but having had a wonderful time. I hope to be back next year for more crazy otaku-ness.

    The Future
    I know I said I was going to be working on an original story after I finished Sculpting for Dummies...but then exams happened, and now I'm off for the summer, starting a new job and working through three video games, a book, a few anime series, and some assorted webcomics.
    I'll get started on the story eventually. My problem is, I have too many fragmented ideas floating around in my head, but only a very few have a coherent storyline, and only one or two have a complete plot line in my head as of now. So basically, I'm dumping a bunch of ideas here so that I don't forget what they are, and hopefully I'll pick one to start with soon.

    Ideas
    Faecoren- an elven prince who's kingdom is taken over and destroyed by a psycho mage because Fae runs away from his destiny. He flees to a foreign land and must try to find a way to fix his mistake and save his people (and maybe learn to love as well).

    Luc- a dyslexic mercenary, his new apprentice, and his sometimes friend/lover ex on a quest to find stereotypical magic stones that have been lost in time, in order to prevent a magical war that could devastate the world.

    Gray- seven people's fates converge as Gray, a young girl with the unwitting power to control destiny, pulls them together in order to divert the pending apocalypse. has m/m, f/f, and maybe a little het.

    Blight- In a demon version of the Spanish Inquisition, feuding demons must learn to work together to escape the dungeons of their human tormentors. Their only hope for survival rests on the cooperation of a naive blue water spirit with the power to heal using his own life force, a transporter, a human guard, and an assortment of powerful creatures, each with their own agenda.

    untitled 1- a kind of wimpy vampire who takes classes at the local university and loves grape slushees catches the eye of one of his classmates. Their budding relationship is threatened when the government finds out about the existence of vampires and the serum that allows them to survive in sunlight and seeks to control it.

    untitled 2- A twenty-something man who is, admittedly, 'too wholesome for his own good', moves into a quiet, conservative neighborhood in Virginia. He tries to adapt to a new home, a new job, neighborhood kids who want his video game systems, his sexuality, and the new guy on the block, who confuses him to no end.

    untitled 3- short story- a werewolf who has been isolating himself for years to protect his village gets caught in a spell on his way to lock himself away for a transformation. The spell's caster is fascinated by the boy he finds in his grasps, but the rising moon complicates things.
    untitled 4- zombie apocalypse.  nerd task force.  who will survive?

    that's good enough for now. This is the reason I can't concentrate on real things- I have all these pieces of stories floating around in my head.

    Training with Jounin in Russian?
    So...I think someone translated 'Training with Jounin' into Russian. I can't really read Russian, so I'm not sure, though. I was a little surprised when I found it. I mean, no one told me about it or anything. Guess it's cool that someone thought it was good enough to translate (and hopefully they fixed all of the spelling mistakes I was too lazy to edit out), and they made sure to credit me for it, so it's not like the devArt fiasco a couple months ago. Guess it never really occurred to me that the KakaIru fandom exists in languages other than Japanese or English (yay American small-mindedness! God Bless America!)
    So, yeah. If someone understands Russian and wants to see if this is really a translation of my fic or whatnot, here's the link. (Not that I really expect people to frequent my lj. I mean, I barely even read it, and I write the damned thing)

    A sequel to ramblings
     So, just an update on the whole plagiarism thing. The offending chapters finally got taken down, but the user apparently hasn't been banned. She left this happy little comment on my wall. 

    "Great! I don't suppose your going to try to delete the other things on my account? Too bad!! Id you actually find any, that's really copies from mine, I'm the only one to try to mix Princess Tutu and Naruto together!"

    Bitch, please. I honestly don't know if your wrote the rest of those 'stories' on your account, but the grammer and spelling are poor enough to suggest you did. But you know, if you're saying the same thing about those stories as you did for Sculpting for Dummies (and that hurts, by the way, very offensive), then that leads me to wonder. 

    If they are stolen as well, at least the deviantart people have her on record for previous violations and be keeping an eye on her. 

    I find this matter morbidly amusing. Did she actually thing people would believe she wrote Sculpting? The change in grammer, punctuation, tense, tone, and overall quality makes much too steep a jump, hun. I really believe this is just an cry for attention. 

    Meh, whatever. Once again, I apologize for my bitchiness. Unless she tries to copy and paste any more chapters from my stories (or any other people's fanfictions that I recognize), this issue is over.
